The JBL OnBeat Micro is an ultra-portable, acoustically sophisticated speaker that fits easily into a backpack, purse or briefcase. The JBL OnBeat Micro provides up to 5 hours of playback when used with batteries and charges the iPhone 5, the iPod touch 5th generation and the new iPod nano when used with the included AC adapter. The portable speaker also includes a built-in USB connector to power and play other portable devices. The JBL OnBeat Micro includes a free, downloadable JBL music app to create customized playlists, adjust volume and browse album artwork.

Some of the first Lightning connector speaker docks. Most consumers might shy away from docks if they've invested in the old 30-pin connector. Bluetooth might be a more versatile and future proof solution, but if you're looking charge and play from your iPhone, iPod, or iPad, it's still a convenient solution.

Both the Micro and Venue LT are available now and sell for $99 and $199.
